PANews reported on August 21st that Gemini, the cryptocurrency exchange owned by the Winklevoss brothers, has obtained a Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA) license from the Malta Financial Services Authority (MFSA). This milestone enables Gemini to expand its crypto product services to more than 30 European countries and regions.

Gemini said the approval marks a key step in its regulated expansion into Europe, while emphasizing the importance of clear regulation for global cryptocurrency adoption. In May of this year, Gemini also obtained a Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (MiFID II) license, allowing it to provide derivatives services in the European market.
